Comic covers have always been an integral part of the success of comic book sales and the longevity of the comic book industry! There could be an entire curriculum built around the nuances of comic book covers through the years. In fact, I think that will be a fascinating subject for a future tour!
In the meantime, let's take a fun look at all the times that Superman and Clark Kent have appeared to share space together on the cover of a DC Comic. This tour will cover the period from Superman's debut in 1938 through the publication of the Crisis on Infinite Earths maxi-series that rebuilt the entire DC universe in 1985. No narratives please, just a visual visit through six decades!
